Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup cottage cheese
• 1⁄2 cup berries (optional) or 1⁄2 cup  mashed bananas (optional) or 1⁄2 cup raisins (optional) or 1⁄2 cup canned pumpkin (optional) or 1⁄2 cup  chopped  fruit (optional)
• 2  tablespoons sugar (brown sugar is nice instead, and splenda works too to keep it healthy)
• 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1⁄8 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
• 2  tablespoons  sliced almonds (optional) or 2  tablespoons  chopped pecans (optional) or 2  tablespoons  chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, lightly beat the egg and add the oats, milk, fruit, sugar, and cottage cheese.
2. Stir well then microwave on high for 2 minutes.
3. Stir well again and microwave for another minute.
4. Keep repeating stirring and microwaving at 1 minute intervals atleast 3 times, until oatmeal becomes thick or to desired consistency. (I like mine really thick, almost pudding-like).
5. Remove and add vanilla, nuts, cinnamon, and nutmeg. (A few dashes of fround ginger and/or cloves is good too if you want to change it up).
6. Stir and enjoy!
